Thanks a lot!
Public Class Form1

Just FYI, the GetApplicationActiveConnectionStringTitle method is all you need....I just created a test for and threw all of the code in there.
Do you have any comment on this one?
Sounds like a bit complicate, is not a property in the connection manager class that will have this info? or a method in there somewhere to get this info?
I think you would have to fill a load a dataset with the "AppKeys.dat" (OpenXmlFile), CopyDataFrom this dataset table into a BO and then work with it, as it would be filled with your connections' data.
I have several database connections (Local, Remote, etc), so I can do my test, I want to show in the main form the "Title" of the currently selected database connection, so I know which server I am connecting to without having to call the Database Connection Wizard to see this info.
How can I programmatically get the "Title" info of the current connection?
